Garoppolo has put up the stats of a pretty great quarterback over his 10 starts, helping his offenses average an impressive 27.1 points per game over that sample size. And it's not out of the question that Kyle Shanahan's offense could help lift a fully-healthy Garoppolo to great heights over the course of a 16-game season.
Still, Jimmy G is a prime example of just how deep the quarterback position is in today's NFL. I wouldn't go out of my way to draft him, but you can certainly do worse.
